432 indexed, illustrated, bibliography, glossary. The jacket, chipped and torn at the edges, looks a bit tired; the body of the book is immaculate. A clean, unmarked and solid copy, though obviously used. Overseas customers please note the book is very heavy and will attract additional postage. The Great Australian Birdfinder is an "authoritative volume combines the functions of a field guide for the confirmed checklister with generous description and lavish illustrations for the armchair ornithologist."
